shepsel Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I would have thought that the cool season would be the best time to get some new air conditioning units, but the prices seem about the same as during the hot season. Do any of the stores or suppliers ever have specials on their a/c systems? How does one find out about this? I would like to have three units installed (18,000 BTU, 24,000 BTU) and was hoping to get some type of price break, so I was looking now. Thanks, in advance, for any information.

cigar7 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I got my 18K BTU mitsubishi from Big C on sale 24,500 baht installed in November 2012, in Pattaya. I think regular price was about 29K baht. I haven't looked for AC the last 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooked Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Just keep looking. Homepro has about 7 different brands and as a new technology is introduced one or the other line goes a lot cheaper. Doesn't mean you have to buy crap though. Sent from my GT-S7500 using Tapatalk 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeniau96 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Some years ago I got four Samsung air con units at HomePro at a very significant price promotion. Just have to keep an eye out for them, does not seem to be any seasonal effect that I ever noted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickvanHeijningen Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Why you not find out it yourself via Google, Home Pro and more. , Type in Google search ; aircondition ( name your place) Ther are many marks and prices and types, look also for how much electric there use. My favorit is Mitsibushi . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkyCowboy Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) Samsung inverter 9k btu, 16900 baht at Tesco Lotus (On nut) I prefer to use two 9k instead of one 18k. Last winter I saw great deals in Fairbanks, Alaska. LOL We got a good 18000 BTU with an inverter to replace an existing AC,( less installation cost). I believe it was 32000 Bt total. The electrical bill is about 1000 to 1500 less per month now. The same unit was 10'000 more at the big retailers.

maderaroja Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Go to BigC Extra. Visit Home Pro to see what they are promoting. Have a cup of coffee and watch the girl stroll by. it's good entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teatree Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I have heard (from someone who buys aircon units in bulk for housing/condo projects) that Samsung are to be avoided. The best buys according to them are Mitsubishi and Daikin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recycler Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 We looked at a lot of shops, finally some shops in BKK are cheap, but don't supply very far from BKK and HomePro was the other cheapest option. Most local shops are way more expensive, certainly for the higher BTU models, for the smaller units the difference is not so big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belg Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 as they will sell less of them, thai illogic economy, the price will rise so they can make up for the loss 555 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxe1200 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Check for easy maintenance and a rather small electricity consumption compared to other brands . Then you are on the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KittenKong Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I dont think there is a particular time to get the best prices. Just do the rounds. I bought a new Hitachi 24K BTU inverter unit recently from Numchai. The shelf price was 48,000B but it had a sticker on it showing a special price of 37,000K (that sticker had been there for 2 months or more to my certain knowledge). Including extra PVC pipe coverings and removing the old unit and tip (the 3 guys did a very tidy job in a fairly tricky location), I actually paid 38,500. I get 2 free cleanings included. Both units were brand new and boxed and factory sealed. A local Thai aircon shop quoted me a rather vague 65K for the same job, and a well-known farang-run aircon business didn't even bother to reply to my request for a quote.
